Not here. At least not on catalyst-equipped car. Here in EU, sniff test is usually done by four-gas machine. Just piping in fresh air might help burn some CO, but lambda (and probably NOx) would be through the roof.
Basically they insert the probe into exhaust pipe, which measures CO, CO2, HC and O2 in real time. If mixture is stochiometric and catalyst works, HC, O2 and CO will be low.
Why would you want to do such thing (remove lambda sensor) in the first place? Car are programmed to run rich at WOT anyway, so you wouldn't gain any power.
